As shown in FIG. 1A, a carrier 10, on which several semiconductor light-emitting element 20 are arranged, is provided. There is a gap 204 between the semiconductor light-emitting elements 20. The semiconductor light-emitting elements 20 can emit lights having identical or different wavelength(s) ranged between ultraviolet and infrared. The semiconductor light-emitting element 20 can be a light-emitting diode having an upper surface 200, on which a first connection point 201 is arranged, and a down surface 220 on which a second connection point 202 is arranged, wherein the upper surface and the down surface are on the same side 222 of the light-emitting element 20. The semiconductor light-emitting element 20 can emit light when the current is injected through the first and the second connection points. The carrier 10 can be a growth substrate, such as sapphire, SiC, ZnO, GaN, AlN, or GaAs, for growing the semiconductor light-emitting element 20. The semiconductor light-emitting elements 20 can be formed on the carrier 10 by a conventional semiconductor growth technology.

Then, as shown in FIG. 1B, a glue layer 30 is formed on the gap 204 wherein the glue layer 30 is mainly formed on the side wall 106 of the semiconductor light-emitting element 20 to form a surface 301. The glue layer 30 can be formed by spin coating, printing, or molding glue filling, and the material of the glue layer 30 can be elastic material such as silicone rubber, silicon resin, silicone gel, elastic PU, porous PU, or acrylic rubber; or dies-cutting glue such as blue film and UV glue. During the process of forming the glue layer 30, some glue layer 30 may cover the first connection point 201 and the second connection point 202 of the semiconductor light-emitting element 20. In that case, the first connection point 201 and the second connection point 202 of the semiconductor light-emitting elements 20 can be exposed by polishing process to remove the glue layer 30 as shown in FIG. 1C.

Next, as shown in FIG. 1D, a metal layer 40 is formed on the glue layer 30 and the semiconductor light-emitting elements 20. The metal layer 40 can be formed by plating, evaporation, or sputtering, and can be the material with conductivity and high reflectivity, such as copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), gold (Au), silver (Ag) or other alloys. Since the formation of the metal layer 40 follows the topography of the below structure, the metal layer 40 contacting with the glue layer 30 forms a corresponding surface 401 along the surface 301 of the glue layer 30, and contacts with the first connection point 201 and the second connection point 202 of the semiconductor light-emitting element 20, wherein the corresponding surface 401 can be a curved surface, a beveled surface, or the combination of a partial curved surface and a partial beveled surface.

Then, as shown in FIG. 1E, the metal layer 40 can be patterned to form a plurality of grooves 402 by photolithography and etching, wherein the grooves 402 on the semiconductor light-emitting element 20 can divide the metal layer 40 on the semiconductor light-emitting element 20 into a first electrode 400 a and a second electrode 400 b. The first electrode 400 a is electrically connected to the first connection point 201, and the second electrode 400 b is electrically connected to the second connection point 202. The groove 402 upon the gap 204 can electrically isolate the two adjacent semiconductor light-emitting elements 20.

Finally, the glue layer 30 is removed as shown in FIG. 1G to exposes the corresponding surface 401 of the first electrode 400 a and the second electrode 400 b. A plurality of light-emitting structures 50 is formed accordingly. It should be noted that since the first electrode 400 a and the second electrode 400 b of the light-emitting structure 50 are conductive, the external current is injected into the semiconductor light-emitting element 20 through the first connection point 201 and the second connection point 202 to generate light. Therefore, there is no need to connect wires to the first connection point 201 and the second connection point 202 of the semiconductor light-emitting element 20 by photolithography wire or wire bonding. Since the corresponding surface 401 of the first electrode 400 a and the second electrode 400 b forms a concave 405, which is a metal surface for reflection, as the semiconductor light-emitting element 20 located on the concave 405 emits a light 15 (the dashed line) from a light-emitting side 206 of the semiconductor light-emitting element 20, the corresponding surface 401 can reflect the light 15 to improve overall light extraction efficiency. And, as shown in FIG. 1H, the groove 402 among the semiconductor light-emitting element 20, the first electrode 400 a, and the second electrode 400 b can be filled in with insulating material 32 such as epoxy to enhance the ability of the structure of semiconductor light-emitting element 20 to resist thermal fatigue and protect the first connection point 201 and the second connection point 202.
